Personally, I think a better idea would have been to roll all fiction into one section, exactly like you had, but organize the toy companies by company, in one section:

Toy Companies
Hasbro-
-Marvel
-Star Wars
-Transformers
-GI Joe
-General Discussion
Mattel-
-DC Universe
-MotU
-Voltron
-Matty Collector Exclusive lines
-General Discussion
Bandai-
-Power Rangers
-Gundam
-GD
Direct Market Companies-
-DC Direct
-Marvel Sellect
-Neca

Bare with me, I forget what major brands a given company may represent. This was only an example.
Basically, something along those lines I think would serve the toys a lot better than Marvel in one forum, everything else in another. It's not perfect, but I think it covers more than the new set up does, but still stays pretty streamlined.
